[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] svasalatii:
Then, if you kindly allow, I will clarify a point:

T for Europe, TL for North America and TX for Asia and Pacific.

This is the roadmap I can figure out, so all three devices should be given an equal treatment then.

These devices are virtually the same save some minor details, as you told.

But at the same time they are different in those details...

At least ROMs for T don't fit (without mods) TL & TX, and vice versa...

Right, and most devs working on roms here are already making said modifications. As I said, I have no issues with adding a new name to this forum, which would effectively take care of the issue with devs not knowing where to post roms. If that is a fair compromise, I will go ahead and get this done.

I think that's fair if you add TX to this forum. Eventually, development will come and if time comes that we deserve another subforum then we will again post a new protest :)

If I post my opinions in a wrong place, receive my pardons.

I'm just noob to XDA though has been reading the forum for quite a while.

Greetings from Ukraine.

My belief is that adding TX to the name of the subforum will solve the problem with angry TX owners, at least for a while:)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Entropy512:
BS. Blind ports are almost always epic fail. They only work when a highly experienced developer for the "target" device provides good reference material.

(For example, I did blind kernels for I9100 for a short period of time. The only reason I did this is because I had spent MONTHS discussing commonalities and differences with I9100 kernel maintainers.) I technically do "blind" development for GT-N8010, only because 20 different users told me that my N8013 builds worked flawlessly with zero modifications other than the script asserts for initial installation.

The existence of a port for the V has nothing to do with a separate subforum and everything to do with the fact that codeworkx and a few other developers actually own one. If anything, it has a separate subforum because there is actually development activity for it, not the other way around.

Are you really so naive to think that a team like those who are Cyanogenmod maintainers are going to make choices based on whether a device has an XDA forum? You do realize that many CM device maintainers for quite a few devices don't ever even come to XDA? Yet, they still do work on their devices regardless of what's going on here on XDA.

Lack of CM for the TX has NOTHING to do with the device having a separate subforum. It has EVERYTHING to do with the fact that the device has effectively zero developers. It's been clearly stated multiple times that the TX isn't supported by CM or FXP because no one owns a device, not a single person has ever stated that an XDA subforum had anything to do with it. The fact is that there is a hayabusa defconfig in the kernel trees, Kali has an untested device tree in his github repos, but not a single Xperia TX owner has attempted to step up and become a maintainer or even attempt to build from and test the tree to my knowledge.

Seriously, if the TX community can't even compile and test from an example device tree that has existed for a few months, they don't have enough development going on to deserve a separate subforum.

Yup. Heck, in many cases, if a device exists and someone owns it, it will get worked on regardless of whether it has its own forum here on XDA. For example even before the XDA "TV Sticks" forum was created, people were working on CM ports to Allwinner A10 and Rockchip RK3066 sticks - they still are and most of them haven't even stopped by in the new forum yet.

Amen. As I've stated above, the fact that a test device tree and defconfig for hayabusa has existed for months and no one has attempted to build and test it on their own device is a pretty clear sign that the TX does not have enough of a development community to merit a separate forum.

In fact, there's a good chance that if someone actually builds for the TX, they'll find it's so similar to the T that it will hurt development for that device instead of help it.

As an example, at this point, if the SGH-I777 forum were completely nuked or merged with the GT-I9100 forum, it wouldn't negatively impact I777 development in the slightest. In fact it would probably improve the situation for I777 owners.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] KidCarter93:
I doubt it would necessarily hurt development but it certainly wouldn't make a blind bit of difference, apart from the fact that TX owners in this thread would start demanding a forum again just because there's one extra build available.

"I don't care if you're the next Chainfire or just some random spammer. If you can't make 10 posts, you shouldn't be on XDA."
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
There's no need for any separate development, the only difference is a small patch (at least for stock based ROMs)

I just want a name on the title of this forum.

Sony Xperia T, TX, TL, V General

Most of us have discussion of Xperia TX on this forum, a name and a subsection is not over.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rashid.fairus:
this is forum for devs, so only devs have a right to request something from mods & admin, so you should know who are you here..:)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
I have a Sony Xperia TX and would really like to see it supported on this forum. The forum is excellent but why does it lack any mention of the TX ? The TX is an international version.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Gasai Yuno:
The T is also an international version. They are also extremely similar in terms of development.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tiunilohmu:
I have just sold my s3 and bought a TX, and realized that there's no development. I just bought a wrong phone. I should have waited for the Z.

Doesn't matter either the sub-forum or not, it's not gonna get develop in the future, since there's nothing now, face it people.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
True, and now that we have this there is no need for a seperate forum as anything (Stock based at least) that works for the T can just have a few files added and work for the TX

As has been said in a previous post, the similarity between the two devices means development for the TX is doomed, and I do worry about the tone of some of the posts in this thread that seem to imply it has been done on purpose and that devs are ignoring the TX in some sort of machiavellian way.

No one on this forum is honour bound to work any device. At any time people can just stop. Its not our job, its not our responsibility. If you really want it handed to you on a silver plate then this is not the forum for you.

What I see here is an opportunity for some people to step up to the plate and start working on the TX and make a name for themselves as a dev before the already established devs do most of the "easier" work and make it hard for new devs to do any original work....

Every cloud has a silver linning... Set yourself a project and try doing it yourself. You never know, you may even learn something and help others out :laugh:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
I'm a .Net developer but haven't developed anything in android. I wouldn't mind checking out the process somewhere ? (Visual Studio and a book ?)

If you can port stuff over from the T then its probably the best option. No point developing everything twice.

That just leaves the forum title, but if they don't want to include the TX in the title I am not going to complain, you can still submit a thread with the TX in it.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Gasai Yuno:
Visual Studio will do nothing at all for you in Android land. You need Linux or MacOS X (with a case sensitive filesystem available) to have a decent ROM development-targeted setup.

Android is basically C/C++ and Java, and the compiler used is gcc.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tuananh1901:
surprise

very surprised that so many people agree with my opinion is the addition of one item for XPERIA TX.

- I was in the Pacific and owns 1 Xperia TX.va I think this is the first international version and it deserves to be developed.

- This is the first device capable of showing great voi.mau color fidelity, high contrast, great.

So why do not we give one vote for its Xperia TX to be developed further?

- You can track your video under day. maybe you do not understand our language. but the you can find Xperia TX is 1 show how well devices. thank you!!!!!!

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Entropy512:
The only problem there is the lack of detail in the patch... A good developer will explain what they did, not just "ohai, here's a ZIP file, flash it". From the sounds of it, it's a kernel swap plus some unknown other thing.

I'm sure that it should be easy to figure out by downloading a ZIP, but it's better if you explain the differences and any oddities you may have encountered.

Pretty much from everything I'm seeing, the only thing holding back the TX from being supported in CM is that NO ONE has stepped up as maintainer. The defconfig is in the kernel repo, there's an untested device tree in Kali's github repo at https://github.com/Kali-/android_device_sony_hayabusa (although it's out of date, it probably needs updating, but anyone with the skills to be a maintainer should have no issues in following what has been done to the mint tree over the past two months and updating the hayabusa tree...) - Mostly all that's needed is for someone who actually owns the device to read the CM build instructions and a little bit about local_manifest.xml so they can add the hayabusa repo to their local tree.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Which was what the second part of my post was about... It just needs someone to step and start doing it that has the device. It's a golden opportunity for someone...

How do I customise the signature on xda premium app?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Entropy512:
Yup. This is, just like the current situation with LTE Note2 devices, a perfect opportunity for a new CM maintainer to learn and get familiar with the building process. It should not be difficult for someone to get Kali's hayabusa tree building and updated with the various things that have gone into the mint tree lately. (However, it's at the point where I won't handhold someone through the process unless they have VERY specific questions. You know, "teach a man to fish" and all that... The best way to learn is by doing.)

Hey guys, this is my first time on this site, I was given this forum from a friend. Anyways, I just had an upgrade today with spring to their Samsung Galaxy S2. I attempted to root the new phone using Heimdall because it was compatible with my Mac instead of Odin. Somewhere along the root the phone became bricked with a flashing blue LED light. I'm unable to get anywhere with it, I've tried to remove the battery for an extended amount of time, attempted to get back to the download screen via volume down & power. The battery was at full charge during the root so I'm not quite sure what went wrong. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheATHEiST:
Blue LED light?

As far as I know the I9100 doesnt have a blue led light. Looks like your in wrong fourm.

Its likely you have flashed incorrect files to your device and if so you have probably corrupted your bootloader resulting in you needing to open device and flash correct one via JTAG connection.

What model of GS2 do you have?

What rom did you try and flash?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhow2319:
I have the galaxy s2 epic 4g touch, is there another forum specifically for this? Apologies if I'm in the wrong one.

I don't know which rom I tried to flash because the video tutorial I used wasn't as clear as I needed it to be. I had a feeling it would cause a problem using heimdall for Mac instead of Odin for Windows.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheATHEiST:
That is not a I9100.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevedub:
Honestly it all depends on what you're looking for if you're looking for a true Android experience or if you're looking for TouchWiz or another launcher.

Wicked sensations is a good TouchWiz rom the only problem is that it was way overly themed. Everything works properly with this ROM alternatively you could use blazer ROM which is more of a stock TouchWiz. The only thing I don't like about blazer ROM is that the wifi tethering does not work.

If you're looking for your pure Android experience you might want to try something like liquidsmooth or maybe CyanogenMod even though it's mainstream everything works properly.

So i have been using my phone without problems until, lately, my phone started turning itself off when it had plenty of juice (ie. 80%) and when i turned it back on it would have 0%, turning itself off again. I also noticed that when it does this i get LOS. I was on the CM10 beta or alpha rom when this first happened, so i changed to phandroid, thinking there was something wrong within the rom. But it is happening still with the new rom.

I do not know if it is battery problem, because it is not really swollen. Any help/advice on how to fix will be appreciated :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
By "it's not really swollen" do you mean its not swollen at all or it's swollen some? Because any swelling at all, even the slightest bit means the battery is bad. It will only get worse once the battery starts to bloat it doesn't stop or slow down it just swells more and more, faster and faster. If you put it on a table and it spins more than 1/4 turn it's swollen and it's bad. Every symptom you've described is a bad battery.

I like to break stuff! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
It may not be the battery at all. Could be the power button finally giving up. Easy fix.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
LOS happens with bad battery but not power button, power button also doesn't cause 80%-0% drop after reboot thats classic bad battery

[Motorola Photon 4G] IWonderWhy:
Greetings,

First and foremost I stay in a dorm and I recently discovered that after so much use my college will limit my bandwidth. When I connect to their wifi I start with speeds of 54 mbps which drops to 6 mbps. I have no 4G access on campus and I've tried several methods to circumvent this bandwidth limit.

I've changed my Mac address and android_id in hopes that when I register my device it'll appear as a new device that won't be limited. This has failed every time. Am I missing another parameter that I don't know about? After researching, should I change my internal ip?

Objective: To make my device appear as a completely different device in attempt to circumvent a bandwidth limit placed on my phone.

I have root access + busybox. I use hex editor to change my mac address and android id changer v1.5 to change my android_id.

Anyone have any idea of what I can do?
